How does aarohi work

We use Zoom for all live sessions.
We have a Daily Calendar of sessions, clubs, projects.
Children, parents and even grandparents all join zoom for any sessions they want.
We use Discord for all coordination, sharing and discussions.
Imagine discord to be a sophisticated version of whatsapp – with channels to organise stuff.
Discord for Coordination for our sessions, clubs, collaborations etc
Discord for Sharing our work that we do at home via typing, audio, video and loads of pictures. There are many interests channels in Discord – like art and craft we share in one channel and Music in another channel etc.
Discord for Discussions: which are of three kind:
> Chit Chat on any topic under the sun
> Seeking and giving Mentoring – child or teenager or parent can ask for and also provide support.
> Open Learning Discussions. Parents seeking clarity, variety and understanding on how to do open learning, or any question related to parenting.
